and the new Radiohead is released ... listening already. #InstantGratification

"Labour’s Ken Macintosh, who has held the Eastwood seat since 1999, in fact ended the night in third place, behind the Conservatives and the SNP."

My new About Me page is live.

You never change things by fighting existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.

Posted this today across a couple of spaces : http://beyondbridges.net/2016/05/silicon-valley-laggard-best-workplace-practice/ - and depending on feedback - it might getter a wider publication next week.

Sometimes the simplest image conveys what we all feel - but we can’t QUITE encapsulate. Follow your passion is the ‘new meme’ .. and then there is this ...

NICE

Realignment of Beyond Bridges Site ? Check !

There are some really clever ideas emerging from The UC Davis Innovation Week.

If you are interested in following the tweets of us 1999ers - pop over here

Prince. Pantone. Blockchain. Brexit. 1999. All covered in my latest post on Beyond Bridges.

I am waiting for the next big debate to be truly talked about .. open and honestly.

I am not sure if Dave's system is / can run some kind of aggregator or list of all of us who are running 1999 sites, but it did strike me that the nature of the people involved with this might be interesting to each other. 

So, I took the liberty of adding those people who had already posted their 'first post here' on Google Docs - to a folder in my Feedly - which you can access here. 

If this is useful - I will continue to add to that group as I become aware of other sites. On the flip side - that URL is in the public domain - and if you do not want to be listed there - let me know.

Letting me know is best done via 'replies' to this post.

Thankyou for you attention.

First thing to point out ... I definitely am not a techy - but love what Dave Winer keeps on pushing with his work around the open web. That is why I signed on here and am loving what I am seeing.

I installed 1999 yesterday without a hitch. I have hit a couple of issues of Java exceptions that I have not reported - since I can't really get a repeatable case. The 'switch it off - switch it on' again solution has worked every time. 

I love the live updating. Simple to use. As Mr Jobs used to say "It just works".

Seperately I am compiling a short list of nice to haves that I will post at sometime in the future - not yet though, I am still playing.

I hit a bug with RSS which I posted into Github - and Dave reponded VERY quickly - which in turn made me read the documentation. Sorry Dave. The documentation included this post. Duly read. Duly absorbed. 

I think there is similar behavior with how 1999 works as with DayONE, of which I am a long time user. DayONE's recent changes cut off my ability to share from my personal journal into the big wide world. I wonder if there is synergy between them and this. Don't know.

Depite getting RSS recognized by IFTTT - thanks to reading Dave's documentation, I still haven't got the recipe working - it says it is working - but nothing is posting into the stream. Still thinking.

I also notice that I am not getting live updating on my blog of these posts. I have added the RSS widget on the menu bar to the left - and it has picked up the first few posts - but nothing since. If anyone is interested, it is running here on Beyond Bridges scroll all the way down to the bottom left headed 1999 Feed. None of this reported, since it still may be me - who knows. However, I did note that when I checked the feed at The W3C Feed Validation Service - it recognizes a valid feed - but at the same time lists a number of areas that it calls out under an initial statement 

"This feed is valid, but interoperability with the widest range of feed readers could be improved by implementing the following recommendations."

All that said ... I am loving this - very happy bunny.

Thankyou.

Love Indexed - trying to come up with the right phrasing for the bottom two quadrants.
